Heater problem
1993 Ford Tempo 4 cyl Two Wheel Drive Automatic

Problems getting blower out and back in.
Manual states remove electrical connector and remove 4 mounting bolts. Take blower out. Installation is reverse of removal. Problem is I can't get it out from under the dash where it is located behind the glove box. It won't clear. It looks like I need to take the entire dash out but I would think it would tell you that in the removal instructions, which it does not. Is there an easy way to get it out?

Ok here is what I found on this ok. You need to remove the glove box door and then unplug the wire connector from it which I assume you already have and then loosen instrument panal on the lower right side. Then tak out the 4 screws (you already have done that), then lower and rotate the motor untill the flats clear the edge of the glove box door opening. Put the new one in, in reverse order. Hope this helps let me know how it goes.
